What the deuce?

Ok, so I'm now 3 pounds below my Last Injection Weight. Theoretically, I'm supposed to gain some back--on purpose--to get within two pounds of the LIW. Sorry, not likely! I can't understand this bizarre phenomenon. It's a dream come true for me--eat healthy, but be able to eat--and still lose weight! It's like I'm normal for a minute or two.

So I tried on last summer's clothes. I'm heavier than I was last summer, but thankfully, nearly everything still fits (phew!). There were a couple of items I put in the back of the closet "for next summer" (I'm feeling optimistic at the moment.).

Our trip to the beautiful Gulf Coast is in a few weeks. I'm scared of gaining back. Last year, we were gone for six days and I gained, wait for it...12 pounds. That doesn't even seem possible! But hey, that's me and my body. So, that is part of the reason I'm not going to start mainlining Greek yogurt in an attempt to gain back that pound.

I "graduate" from the initial three week stabilization on Monday. I'm scared of food, so I'm not going to indulge in pizza or anything like that. I'm going to try something with a modicum of sugar--cured meats.

Oh bacon, I've missed you so....
